Ummm, I've been busy.

Well, that, plus the general motivational dilemma when the blogger (me) spends way more time typing than the total number of readers (you) spends reading. I had some fun and some eyeball action last year with the Super Bowl run-up, but things fell out a little differently this time.




















Back to the present: I'm going to lose my Haloscan (now Echo) commenting setup at the beginning of March unless I pay them, so I am mulling over whether to move the whole blog and start over with a new layout for 2010. (Yes, I know the template stinks in IE. I just dislike IE too much to do anything about it.) Or should I go back to Blogger's comments, and stay put. Or pay Echo. Or bag the whole business. I've always been able to say "My blogging is a nearly-complete waste of time, but at least it's free, and it's 100% optional". But when you can read The Pensblog and Empty Netters and Puck Huffers and the Pens' website, what the hell do you need to come here for? I can occasionally throw some amusing snark, but there's nothing compellingly original here. I'm in an existential blog crisis, because unlike 98% of the rest of the blogosphere, I don't see the point of typing only to myself. I don't have any answers. Look through my archives and tell me whether this is worthwhile to continue.
